“Yoga teaches us to cure what need not be endured and endure what cannot be cured” ~ B.K.S. Iyengar

Yoga is a way of life…it is not removed from it. One does not need to feel disappointed or frustrated considering one’s limitations with regard to physical health, shape and size of the body, lack of time, lack of space, unavailability of the teacher and so on. Yoga in fact is the means to overcome all these problems. Yoga includes every aspect of life. Yoga touches everything in life. All healing methods and meditations are part and parcel of yoga. Yoga is like the sun itself, which brightens everything that comes into contact with it.
